That's where legendary production designer Jack Fisk comes in. He's best known for the beautifully designed period settings in movies like "The Thin Red Line," " The New World," and "There Will Be Blood" over his three-decade career.
Parents need to know that The Revenant is a revenge Western that's full of brutal, punishing violence. The main character (played by Leonardo DiCaprio) overcomes crippling wounds, hunger, cold, and pain to find the man who killed his son; he's often shown in great agony. Characters are also shot with arrows and guns, mauled by bears, and fall over cliffs. Blood, gore, and wounds are shown, as are dead bodies (both human and animal). A woman is raped. Language is also very strong, with uses of "f--k," "s--t," and more. There's a brief moment of full-frontal male nudity, and some whisky drinking is shown.

Indeed, movie reviews are not meant to be arguments as to which movie should win Best Picture; they are the start of conversations, debates, and chats about specific movies. But if you look at reviews of the 2016 Best Picture nominees, a consensus begins to emerge.
There are many movies that capture wintry environments and their harsh realities so well that they make viewers never want to leave the comfort of their warm beds. They make us long for summer days, where the sun shines, the weather is beautiful, and life is easy. These brutal wintry movies are sure to make audiences count the days until summer returns again.
So, why don't I love The Revenant, then? It checks off all the boxes for me, and yet...I just don't. Here's the most frustrating thing about this - I KNOW it's a great film. I even put it on my list of the ten best Leonardo DiCaprio movies, well aware that I don't really enjoy it all that much. This really burns me up inside since I want to love it! I really do!
I love Stanley Kubrick movies, and one of my favorite movies of his is Barry Lyndon, which is as beautiful as it is engaging. The reason why I bring that movie up is because it famously uses a lot of natural lighting, with some shots filmed entirely using candle light. This makes the film feel more authentic given the time period, and it's all the more interesting because of the setting being such a stand-out feature.
In fact, I find Leo to be a much more interesting actor in most of his other movies. In The Revenant, he plays a fur trapper named Hugh Glass who gets mauled by a bear, is left for dead, and finds his son murdered. He then sets off on a quest for vengeance, which is fascinating in theory, but Leo gives a very patient and quiet performance. I know this is what is supposed to make it so powerful, but I don't think it's as good as the other two films I mentioned earlier.
Honestly, The Revenant is much closer to the director's more dour movies (more on that in a few) prior to Birdman, and it's my fault that I set my expectations needlessly high. It still bothers me that I absolutely adore Birdman, and I can't have that same love for The Revenant. Thems just the breaks, though, I suppose.
Arguably the best cinematographer working in Hollywood today, Emmanuel Lubezki isn't someone who is afraid of failure. He's worked with some of the industry's most ambitious filmmakers, specifically Terrence Malick, with whom Lubezki has made four movies; Alfonso Cuarón, for whom Lubezki shot Children of Men and Gravity; and recent Oscar winner Alejandro González Iñárittu. Yet failure is something the Mexico City native experienced plenty of times during the making of his latest collaboration with Iñárittu, The Revenant, opening in limited release this Friday, Christmas Day, on the heels of Lubezki's back-to-back Academy Awards for Cuarón's Gravity (2013) and Iñárittu's Birdman (2014).
Film allows the directors and the cinematographers to have more possibilities to tell their stories. In terms of archiving images, film is the most incredible way to do that. If you have the prints and the negatives and put them in a safe place, you can have them for a thousand years. With digital prints, it's very hard to archive. I think a lot of the movies we're doing right now digitally might disappear forever. The third thing has to do with the history of film. I would love to be able to go to the theater and see The Godfather the way it was intended to be seen. I would hate if we lost that.
I think doctors probably even talk about that age, where your mind is formulating into adulthood. Watching those movies at that time became part of my DNA. I knew what great acting and great movies were. I sat there feeling I could never, ever achieve something like that. But I knew what it was, and so I spent my whole life, trying.
On the surface, these movies seem very similar in terms of setting and tone, which is why many people have been comparing them in recent weeks. The truth is that these films have just as many differences as they do similarities. For example, The Revenant is a film mostly devoid of dialogue in favor of grander set piece moments. In contrast, most of The Hateful Eight is composed dialogue, and its story rarely steps out of the confines of a small inn.
It goes without saying that both movies have simplistic set ups. The Revenant is about a hardy (no pun intended) frontiersman looking for revenge against the men who left him for dead. The Hateful Eight boils down to a group of outcasts being forced to spend time together during a blizzard.
This weekend Oscar frontrunner Leonardo DiCaprio returned to the number one spot for the first time in six years with his current Best Picture contender The Revenant which climbed up into the top spot in its third round of nationwide release. The acclaimed revenge saga grossed an estimated $16M falling 50% from its take from last weekend. Cume to date for Fox is a hefty $119.2M. Though starring in many critical and commercial successes in recent years, DiCaprio has not had a number one hit since the summer blockbuster Inception which spent three weeks on top in 2010 and 11 total weeks in the top ten. Both movies, coincidentally, co-star Tom Hardy.
